*'''Osu Children's Library (OCL)'''<br />
:It was started in 1992 by Canadian Kathy Knowels. Since then, it has flourished into more than 100 libraries around Ghana. Despite the petite size of the Accra library, it is full of books by Ghanaian authors, popular American children's books, and books the OCL Fund has published themselves. Their books are priced for GHC 3.50 to 5.00 each with the best feature being the pictures of Ghana that fill the pages.<br />
:They are open Monday through Saturday (hours ?). It is within walking distance from Danquah Circle in Osu. Walk down the road that Honeysuckle is on (surely a reliable landmark) and turn left at the second intersection and walk for about 10 minutes max. You will pass the School of Journalism and the Kofi Anan Center. It's on your left and it is a bright blue small building. The librarian is a very nice Ghanaian woman named Joana (0246838171). <br />

<br />
<br />
===Ghanaian NGOs in Partnership with Peace Corps===<br />
<br />
*The [http://www.natureandmore.com/growers/itfc '''Organic Mango Outgrower Association'''] (OMOA) is a collection of 1500 farmers from 40 different villages in the Savelugu/Nanton, Tolon/Kumbungu, Karaga and West Mamprusi Districts ofthe Northern Region. These farmers are being supported by Integrated Tamale Fruit Company (ITFC), with interest-free imports and technical information togrow organic mangoes. They have formed the association, and have an executive committee who meets monthly to discuss issues facing the farmers throughout the project zone. The support that the executive body offers to the association varies, anywhere from other agricultural projects, economic opportunities,literacy education and health improvement programs. The farmers pay yearly dues to pay the salary of an administrator, a full time accountant, and to pay for yearly meetings andother expenses. This association has been in existence for over 7 years. <br />
**Four years ago, OMOA applied and received a Peace Corps Volunteer. Her primaryproject was to provide sanitation education to the farmers within the project.She was replaced by another volunteer, and in addition the association appliedfor 2 more volunteers to instigate a health program for the association. Thehealth program is in its beginning stages. It is centered around the trainingof volunteers within the project communities as health educators. To beginwith, the program is focusing on HIV/AIDS education, but in the future there is hope to expand it to include all aspects of health education. OMOA is alsopartnering with GTZ (now GIZ) in this endeavor. In the previous year OMOA and GTZ administered a Knowledge, Attitude, Behavior and Perception (KABP) survey on HIV/AIDS to see the level of HIV/AIDS information existing in the project communities. They also organized a peer educator workshop to train a small number of farmers from each zone onHIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted infections (STI’s), and family planning methods. Together, OMOA and GTZ hope to provide education to all the farmers and theirfamilies and communities. They also will work to increase the capacity of theGhana Health Service Clinics within the project zone, to ensure that thesupport for testing and treatment are in existence to ensure sustainability.The project also includes goals of creating sustainable condom distributionprograms.<br />
*'''Integrated Tamale Fruit Company (ITFC)''' is a private company incorporated in 1999. The company cultivates certified organic mangoes for both local and export markets. It operates in the Savelugu-Nanton District in the Northern Region. ITFC operates an outgrower scheme, started in 2001, which currently includes 1,300 outgrower farmers, each having a farm of about 1 acre with about 100 mango trees. ITFC provides an interest free loan to the outgrowers exclusively in the form of required inputs and technical services. The farmers start paying for the loan from the sale of mangoes after five years. This arrangement guarantees that ITFC can source a large volume of quality organic mangoes and the farmers can earn a long-term sustainable income for their families.<br />
